Why the study?
EuroSCORE predicts in-hospital mortality after cardiac surgery and many associated risk variables persist postoperatively, but its value for predicting long-term survival after CABG required investigation.
Does the logistic EuroSCORE predict long-term survival in patients undergoing isolated CABG?
Comparison
Low (<3) vs intermediate (3-6) vs high-risk (>6) logistic EuroSCORE
Design
Single-center retrospective cohort study
Follow-up
10-year
Key result
The logistic EuroSCORE successfully predicted long-term survival up to 10 years following isolated CABG surgery across low, intermediate, and high-risk groups (p < .05).

May aid post-CABG risk stratification; extends EuroSCORE utility but leaves open prospective validation.

p-value: p=< .05
The logistic EuroSCORE, originally designed for in-hospital mortality, can also predict long-term survival up to 10 years following isolated CABG surgery.
Fleet et al. (2022) conducted a cohort in Coronary artery bypass graft surgery (n=663). Logistic EuroSCORE vs. Low (<3), intermediate (3-6), and high-risk (>6) groups was evaluated on Long-term survival (p=< .05). The logistic EuroSCORE successfully predicted long-term survival up to 10 years following isolated CABG surgery across low, intermediate, and high-risk groups (p < .05).
